Mark Bowe is back with another season of Barnwood Builders to transform the look of dilapidated cabins and sheds. Season 15 of Magnolia will air on Thursday, February 23 at 9pm ET. Viewers will be able to watch episodes on Fubo, Apple TV and Discovery + the day after they air on television. Mark Bowe will be featured in the debut episode of Barnwood Builders, titled Legendary Log Houses, as he builds a custom log guest house in Dandridge, in the heart of the highlands of the Great Smoky Mountains.
The description of the Magnolia series reads:
“Mark Bowe and his West Virginia-based team restore old barns and cottages in this series before the wood rots. Their purpose is to breathe new life into old buildings. Among his endeavors was tearing down an ancient log house in West Virginia, restoring and rebuilding it for a Tennessee collector.
Mark will also visit one of the country’s most iconic residences in the program. Meanwhile, Gatlinburg’s candy store will be transformed by artist Johnny Jett.
Barnwood Living was founded by Barnwood Builders presenter Mark Bowe.
Mark Bowe, 53, is from Glasgow, West Virginia, and earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration while working as a coal miner at West Virginia University. He later earned a master’s degree in security management from West Virginia University’s College of Commerce. His wife Cindy and son Atticus live in Lewisburg. Mark is a well-known craftsman, historian, businessman and Barnwood Builders presenter. In 1995, he established his own remodeling company, Antique Cabins & Barns. The organization’s name was eventually changed to Barnwood Living, and it transformed the construction of 500 pioneer-era cottages.
He wants to celebrate the “craftsmanship of America’s pioneer ancestors” and preserve their hard work for future generations. With his official website, fans can also hire him for motivational lectures. Bowe also owns an insurance firm and has served on the city council.
Bowe told Greenbrier Valley in an interview that he aims to improve the public’s perception of West Virginia:
“I want to challenge the notion of “bukit bukit”. The network wouldn’t let us use it in the first season, but after that, truckers would send us while proudly identifying themselves as hillbillies. The network finally appeared. I believe it refers to strong bonds with family and friends, determination to work hard, and qualities such as endurance and courage.”
He enjoys kayaking, canoeing, fishing, camping, ax throwing, and playing tomahawks. His Ted Talk from 2013, The Front Porch, is now accessible on YouTube and has over 17k views. Johnny Jet, Sherman Thompson, Tim Rose, and Graham Ferguson were among his teammates.

Bowe describes his passion for his profession as follows:
“If you don’t enjoy what you’re doing, you should do something different.”
Barnwood Builders airs every Thursday at 9pm ET on the Magnolia network.
